Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I really enjoyed both of these islands. Particularly if you are a history buff, you will enjoy seeing the fort in St. Kitts and Nelson's Dockyard in Antigua.
  2. Many years ago, my husband, son, and I went to the upper level of the theater for a show. There were about 5 people in the whole level. There were tons of empty seats. I had placed my evening bag on the empty seat next to me. A couple entered the room, and in a huff the woman came right next to me and sat on top of my bag, saying "You are not supposed to save seats!" To this day I do not know how I restrained myself.
  3. I just cancelled a cruise that was going to Brazil (on another cruise line) because they require US citizens to apply for an eVisa where you have to send bank statements to prove you can "financially support" you stay in the country.
  4. I am booked on a cruise in April. Should I download the app now or wait till the new one? Does it matter?
  5. I broken-heartedly and with a few tears cancelled my March 9 Voyager cruise over this issue. My financial advisor advised me not to send this info to Brazil. This may be extreme, but I was truly uncomfortable doing so and did not want to take on the stressful application process that so many seem to be experiencing. I hope all of you get good results and have a wonderful cruise. I will be following along in spirit. This was to be our fist Regent cruise and I hope I can rebook another in the near future.
  6. For what it's worth, I have applied for visas for many countries over the years, including China, India, Egypt, and one in southeast Asia that I am not sure about, maybe Laos? Providing flight info is common, but I have never been asked for financial records. This is a deal-breaker for me. My financial advisor said it would be beyond stupid to send personal information like this to a foreign country. I shred my statements before I put them in my trash! I am certainly not sending them off to be seen by who knows who! Hoping that Brazil will modify the Visa requirements for cruise passengers.
  7. Frankly I am aghast at the requirement to prove financial stability. I am seriously considering cancelling the cruise.
  8. That is the stuff of which some of the most memorable and funny travel experiences are made, after the fact of course!
  9. Many years ago I was on a cruise with my then 12 year old son. He loved jigsaw puzzles and completed the one in progress in the common area. An older grump passed by and made a very rude comment that children should should not be allowed to play with the puzzles!
  10. If you don't get Regent Air, can you purchase a transfer to the airport?
